First Turkey Hunt

My First Turkey Hunt

Location: Polk County, Wisconsin, USA

April 2011

My first turkey was easier than it should have been. I had some great teachers and I discuss some things that a turkey hunter should consider when using calls, decoys, and setting up. As always it was fun and I hope that you can enjoy the adventure along with me.

For those who are interested, you can get your turkey tags through the Game & Fish in most states. Some have over-the-counter (OTC) options but many are by lottery draw only. Visit your local Game and Fish web site for opportunities near you. If you have never been hunting and would like to, first step is to get your Hunter Safety Course finished up. Some states offer a Mentorship as a possibility. Another great option is to contact the First Hunt Foundation. It is a great organization that is to help those interested in learning to hunt. I also highly recommend Volume 1 & 2 of The Complete Guide to Hunting, Butchering, and Cooking Wild Game books by Steven Rinella. Another outstanding resource is Hank Shaw and his books as well as Hunt Angler Gardener Cook group on Facebook.

I would love to connect with you all at Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube!

Thank you and go live your stories!
